This was so fun to read! Being back in the Grishaverse was a blast, with a new set of characters that are each so intriguing but a as crew absolutely unstoppable. I loved the little hints at characters we've met in the "Shadow & Bone" Trilogy. The story kept me on the edge of my seat, questioning at every turn whether they'll make it or not. I cannot wait to continue with "Crooked Kingdom" to see hiw the Crows' story continues.

I can’t believe I put off reading this book for so long. I find all of the characters to be so complex and heartbreaking to learn about. I really enjoy the thought that went into creating each character and how it worked with the plot, the author has a beautiful way of making us think one thing, and then giving us some thing else. I genuinely did not see a lot of things that was gonna happen, and when they worked out it made me feel a lot better. I can’t wait to read the next book!
